Bullets preview

VS. CHARLOTTE HORNETS

* WHEN: Tonight, 7:35.

* WHERE: Capital Centre.

* TV/RADIO: HTS and WTOP-AM 1500.

* OUTLOOK: Neither the Bullets (11-17) nor the Hornets (9-19) are going anywhere, but tonight's game will provide an interesting matchup, even if it won't be head-to-head. Bernard King's quest for the scoring title is one of the more intriguing stories in the NBA this year. The veteran forward is challenging Charles Barkley and Michael Jordan with a 30.2 average and has been the Bullets' only consistent performer. Former teammate Muggsy Bogues, the 5-foot-4 dynamo from Dunbar High School, is the main attraction for the Hornets.
